The studio is very quiet right now, with a small weaving group. Let’s look at some of the cool stuff.

Marybeth's dummy warped

Betsy and Ginger and I are warping up for shawls. I’m working on a raw silk warp, with this funky weft. I woven a nursing shawl out of this warp many years ago, and sold it! Darn. Then I couldn’t find the yarn anywhere in the US, so I was really thrilled when I got a large cone of it when I bought a used loom. Whew.

Betsy will be working with cria yarn, and we’ll just have to see Ginger’s warp/weaving.

I have a 4 harness table loom for sale. It is a folding Dorothy Leclerc and currently has a piece on it, which was being worked on a month ago. It is in great condition, but I need room more than loom. This loom was being held as ‘sold’, but I can’t get a response from the buyer any more. So, here it is!

4 harness 15 3/4″ Leclerc Dorothy folding table loom. This loom sels for $675 new. I’m selling it for $275. Comes with 2 home-made stick shuttles, 1 reed, and the heddles. This loom folds up small enough to fit behind a household door, even with the warp on it.

We had a great workshop Saturday at Bay School of the Arts in Mathews, VA. We felted panels and sewed them into purses. Currently, I don’t have any pictures of the finished pieces, but may find some. Here we are having lots of fun;0)

This is a one day rigid heddle weaving workshop. It’s offered at Bay School of the Arts, in Mathews, VA. We will be setting up the looms, and weaving off the projects on the day of the workshop. It’s a perfect class for beginners. If you have questions, you can reach Bay School here:

I hope you will join us. Please don’t wait too late to register. Sometimes the class fills and sometimes it cancels. Either way, the decision is made approx 2 weeks prior to class date.
